Craig Announcement Coming Tomorrow

posted by on August 31 at 14:40 PM

I wonder what it might be

Sen. Larry Craig plans to make an announcement Saturday about his future.

“We haven’t quite scheduled anything, but we’re looking at doing something tomorrow,” said Craig’s spokesman Sid Smith. “We haven’t set a time or place yet.”

"We haven't set a time or a place yet." It's so hard to find a location that will fit enough people but is far enough away from the temptation of public restroom stalls.

it just takes a couple of days to get together the fully choreographed number, and craig had to bedazzle the outfits himself.

Hey Dan, don't you think that as crappy as Craig is that it's even crappier that the cop solicited? He did tap his foot in response to the shitheads tapping. Aren't officers forbidden from soliciting?

The point remains, legal entrapment only applies to situations where the cop goads you into doing something illegal that you would not otherwise do.

Craig was looking for some under-the-stall lovin', and would have tried to get it from someone, regardless of whether or not he was a cop.

Nappy above - you are full of shit

Craig did nothing illegal

And in the video of the cop shop talk with him - he says bad things about entrapment - and he is correct

gay sex is not illegal

being sexual, thank God, is not illegal

signals of interest is not illegal

and intent is very difficult to prove - smart tea room cruises often take it elsewhere ie. auto parked in seclusion, room, camper, etc - to get the long play good stuff in comfort and safety - see Rex Wockner blog

bet the young good looking, always, decoy cop is queer and that is why he is the decoy - count on it - his buddies at the cop shop are all smug about it

cruising places men piss goes back to ancient times - way before the modern urban gay bar - duh

and entrapment is a foul tactic - as in gay men in the john or straights looking at the great tits on the lady at the corner - yuk
